About us

Old trucks, slow meat, and the race on the radio.

I kept telling Caleb we should write some of this down. The Saturdays, the people, the things that get fixed and the things that don't. So this is that.

— Sarah

I'm Caleb. My wife Sarah and I started this little corner of the internet because we kept taking pictures of stuff in the driveway and didn't really have anywhere to put them.

I run a landscaping company. Spent a lot of years on crews working high-end properties, a couple NASCAR guys' places out toward Mooresville and a few others, before I went out on my own. Sarah went to App State for teaching and now stays home with our kids. Her dad raced short-track for years up at Wilkesboro and Hickory, and the radio in the garage was his father's before that. So the race on Saturday isn't a new thing for us. It's just always been there.

Most weekends I'm under a hood and Sarah's got the smoker going. Friends drift in and out. Crank finds shade. The duck gets into something he shouldn't. That's about the size of it.
